The best way to get (free) help is to join one of the LedgerSMB mailing lists or browse the mailing list archives for past advice:
# diff -u "original file" "new edited file" > “diff file”
Submit your patches ( “diff file” through the Sourceforge project tracker. If you are going to do somewhat largish changes, it's best to discuss how to do them on the developers list. That increases chances for acceptance which is in general the best solution for you and the lsmb community.
